In 1467, the Troubles of Onin began - the struggle of daimyo groups for power ^[6] . As an excuse, the debate about who will be the next shogun after the death of Asikagi Yoshimasa - his brother Yoshimi or son Yoshihisa was used. The fact is that in 1464 the ruling shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa adopted his younger brother (convincing him to leave the monastery) and declared him his heir ^[6] . However, in 1465, Yoshimasa's wife gave birth to a boy, whom the shogun also appointed successor. The brother began to seek support from the noble families. As a result, the Yaman clan stood up for the child (Yoshihisu), and Hosokawa - on the side of his brother (Yoshimi) ^[6] . The turmoil lasted 10 years and did not have a winner - the parties brought each other to complete exhaustion, and the capital of Kyoto was completely destroyed ^[6] .

• 1467 (1st moon of the 1st year of Onin) - a supporter of Ashikagi Yoshihisa Yamana Motitoyo and Hatakeyama Yoshinari took up positions near the residence of the Ashikaga clan in Kyoto and called the former emperors Go-Hanazono and Go-Tsuchimikado to make sure that Hosokawa Kaotsokawa Ka Hatakeyama Masanaga will be put to death. Ashikaga Yoshihisa tried to avoid escalating the conflict, but did not succeed, and ordered Yoshinari to kill Hatakeyama Masanaga . However, Masanaga managed to escape from the capital ^[7] ;
• 1467 (1st moon of the 1st year of Onin) - Naidaijin Sayensi-no Saneto was dismissed, Hino-no Katsumitsu was replaced in his place ^[7] ;
• 1467 (2nd moon of the 1st year of Onin) - Shiba-no Yoshikado became Canre ; at the same time, the influence of Hosokawa Katsumoto fell, who began to regret that he did not join Masanaga. Motitoyo and Yoshinari requested military assistance from their clans ^[7] ;
• 1467 (5th moon of Onin's 1st year) - Nijo Motimichi's campaign was dismissed, and Ichijo Kaneyoshi was replaced in his place ^[7] ;
